Excellent rowing app, intuitive, easy to use, clear display, very customizable. I don't understand some of the negative reviews unless there were bugs in early versions. Great to be able to display heart rate on screen, see my track on satellite image afterwards, graphs of race pieces, etc. Data can be exported in csv format if you need more detail.

I'm the fastest and strongest rower on my team. I regularly hit stroke ratings between 62 and 100. Either that or this app is buggy, and it drives me insane. I'm delighted when it actually works. I'm not sure if that's half the time or a bit less than that.

I tried several apps for rowing training, but Crewnerd is by far the best. Frequent updates. Innovative features (head-up display-like support !). Connection to external accessories (heart rate bands, etc). Tracking. Too many features to write in a review. Support is super-responsive. It's totally worth the cost. Look no further, forget all the rest, you won't regret those few bucks and you will not go back.

The app fully replace the NK Speedcoach. You can adjust which info you want to see on the screen and choose double row size/single row size. It adjust to the screen size nicely even for smaller screen. Shown data are up to 99% accurate, just a few temps out of 12km are a bit weird (stroke rate 13 in the middle of 24), but I noticed the same for the NK Speadcoach. Nice feature to set the training intervals and to get sound signal at the end of the interval. Nice!! I can just advice to buy.

Crewnerd is great - but only because of its stroke detection and rowing oriented pace units. I would like the ability to crop an activity and it's annoying that it inserts its name into the track description when uploading to Strava, despite the fact I've paid for it. It would be good if the track title and description could be editted before export.

Great app for tracking our dragon boat practices and competitions. The layout is easy to read and intuitive to use.
